Paul Davis, the business manager of Desert Knowledge Australia, will be its new CEO, replacing John Huigen, according to a reliable source.
And the NT Government is also in the process of appointing a new board.
This follows a scathing review of the organisation.
We yesterday asked the NT Department of Business for confirmation but were told today by a spokeswoman that she is still seeking details. Mr Davis says he does not wish to comment at this time.
He has a Bachelor of Business from Monash University and MBA from Curtin University. Prior to joining DKA, he worked for Newmont where he was in charge of Community and External Relations for its Tanami Operations. He has previously worked for the Wunan Foundation, the Telethon Institute for Child Health Research, Coca-Cola Amatil and BHP Billiton.
